It is 10 years ago since I acquired my home in Hillsborough. Conveyancing lawyers have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to find the deeds. Is this a major issue?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be with the lender or they may still be with the lawyers who handled your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Hillsborough relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Hillsborough. My financial adviser suggested a property lawyer. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Not long after, the property lawyer called me to say that they were not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Co-operative panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

The property agent will need to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the conveyancing practitioners are on the bank’s approved list). Call up Co-operative or your broker and finalise any relevant paperwork. Co-operative will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or seller to book a time for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight to get a mortgage offer. Co-operative will send the offer to you and your lawyers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Hillsborough.
How does conveyancing in Hillsborough differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Hillsborough approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because builders in Hillsborough usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Hillsborough or who has acted in the same development.

A lawyer would have to be really bad to suggest replacing them. Has the loan offer been generated? In the event that it has you will need to inform them of the new conveyancer and ensure the loan are re-issued. The conveyancer should be on the lenders panel to avoid escalating expenses and complications. So that should be your first question of the new conveyancers.
